They gathered pace when the actress was snapped at various matches of team India last year at the Cricket World Cup, seemingly hiding her baby bump with loosely-fitted clothes. 

A few days back, Harsh Goenka's post on X (formerly Twitter), stoked further curiosity. He claimed that Anushka is pregnant and the baby will be born in London. Although it is not certain where the couple welcomed their baby, it is happy news for the fans that their family has grown by one.
